Explosive Mitigation

There is a growing understanding and acceptance that there are principles which are common to all disciplines - managing risk in order to reduce losses. There is a need for a structured approach towards managing any type of risk, as resources have been allocated in the past for the reduction of injuries and forms of loss, without always first establishing the level of risk involved. This often results in either inadequate control measures or sometimes literally wasting money on safety, quality and maintenance.

Through our network of experienced associates we can offer the full range of services in assisting its clients with crisis and incident management in the explosives milieu, especially in war torn regions, where terrorist/organized crime attacks have already taken place, as well as in more routine SHEQ applications. The consultancy service, manifest itself in the form of a Explosives Risk Management and Countermeasure “toolbox”, based on Explosive Mitigation Model (EXM²™).
